Engineering and optimization
We have the experience and technological capabilities necessary to ensure that the developed antibodies meet the quality standards that allow their use in non-clinical and clinical studies.
ALTHEA GOLD LIBRARIES
Our ALTHEA Gold Libraries have been successfully used by researchers and biotech companies for the development of therapeutic antibodies.
